Oh no!

All of a sudden, it's December and everyone else has their lights up, the tree decorated and all their presents wrapped - how did they do that?? They stayed home, that's how; didn't make it to the gym, or out for their morning run or even to their pilates class. They'll the ones who'll be sorry come New Year's Eve when they have to squeeze into that dress that fit perfect when they bought it last weekend or the button's too tight on their shirt (and they have that funny little gap) - either one of those can spoil a great party! Take the time now to get your workouts in - they are great stress relievers and calorie burners; that yoga or pilates class will help you to relax and organize your thoughts; the relatives are coming and they're bringing their pets, the lights keep going off on the tree, and your prime rib dinner now includes two vegetarians - you're going to need to be calm, and it will help if you're pants fit. And, what's a better excuse than you're meeting your trainer when it's too early too drink wine and everyone's driving you crazy?? Staying healthy is a gift to yourself, so don't panic - somehow by Christmas Eve it'll all be done! Melissa
